Hello, welcome to the Fleets, Fauna and Megan with Hayley Sproul podcast. It's thanks to McCafe. Download the Maccas app, buy five McCafe coffees and get one free. Just googling here, I heard in the news just before we finished the show, we heard a news bulletin that said there had been a change in lunchbox rules in New Zealand. I didn't know that there were lunchbox rules. Are you not allowed to use a tip-top ice cream container for your lunchbox? Well no, that's reducing, reusing, and recycling. I think you should definitely be allowed to.

I know, but you could get bullied. I was going to say, both of you had sad looks on your face there when you said about the tip-top. We had, at one stage, used a tip-top ice cream container for a lunchbox. Right. Yeah, great. Mine was for punishment because I kept losing my lunchbox. I didn't mind.

It was, yeah. I liked it because it was deeper. You could put more food lunchbox. I didn't mind. It was, yeah. I liked it because it was deeper. You could fit more food in it. Yeah, good size. Yeah. And that was why I wanted my lunchbox to be bigger so I could just take far more food. Just bulking. Yeah.

So there's going to be changes about like choking and stuff. So like hard crackers, popcorn. Like if you're going to take carrots, it's got to be, like, grated. Oh, right. I feel like I would sooner choke on a handful of grated carrot than I would a full carrot. You might be like a bit of a, but you'd come right. Whereas if it's a, what do you call that, a disc of carrot?

Arguably, you could choke on any food, though, couldn't you? Oh, 100%. Yeah. Maybe not juice for very long. So for early childhood centres, whole nuts, gone. So that's like a whole, like a hazelnut. Oh, I'm not buying my kid bloody crushed almonds. What are those things?

Chopped nuts? Chopped nuts. Slithered almonds. Slithered? Large seeds, potato chips, hard rice crackers, dried fruits, sausages or Cheerios? Because, you know, have you ever got a bit excited at a party and, dried fruits, sausages or Cheerios. Because, you know, have you ever got a bit excited at a party and popped one of those red skin Cheerios down? And it just goes.

And you're gagging it back. Straight down the tongue and it's just in the throat. And you're like. Popcorn or any sweets and lollies. So there's going to be changes afoot. God, what is there left to eat? Just know before your kids go to. Like crushed apples.

What's that apple stuff you eat when you're sick? Apple puree. Puree. Yeah, that's yum. That's yum. That is yum. Baby food, eh? Yum.

Yes. So kids are just going to be going there with a flask of soup. Yeah. To kindy. Cold soup. Cold soup. Because you don't want the burn option. I'm not a criminal.

A flask of cold pumpkin gruel. It just seems like PC Madison. My day, we did teppanyaki every day. You made your own teppanyaki. With the knives. You lit your own fire as well, as I recall. Were you throwing bits of scrambled egg to your friends to catch in their mouth? And you liberally applied oil, didn't you?

Yeah, I did. To the plate. Chuck some scallops on. Yeah. That was after you went diving For your own scallops As a four year old Yeah and you came up real quick

The bends You said to hell with them I won't slowly resurface No I'll race my air bubbles To the surface How deep were your scallops? Very deep Right

Very deep Because we used to dredge ours In the kindy boat Oh right That was before dredging Was bad for the environment We lost the kindy boat in repossession. We didn't pay our bills. Right, okay.

Yeah, times are tough. Thanks, Ray J. Oh, we're back. Yeah, that's good. That's good. That fits good. It fits well. It's a well-fitting shoe there.

I ran into our new newsreader in the kitchen this morning when I was making my cereal. Day three of the cereal trial, by the way. How's it going? Good cereal today. What is it? I don't know, but it had cacao in it. Well, that's the marker of a fine cereal, I think. That's when you know you've got the bouj.

It's not cocoa. It's cacao. Yeah, you're not eating chocolate. It's not chocolate chips. No, it's cacao. No, it the bouj. It's not cocoa. It's cacao. Yeah, you're not eating chocolate. It's not chocolate chips. No, it's cacao. No, it's cacao. It's nibs. It's fancy. It's carob nibs. Anyway, she said to me, I heard you were taking the piss out of me yesterday. Oh, no.

We're just trying to find a name that fits. Yeah, she didn't mean it in a bad way. She said, oh, yeah, we're just trying to find a nickname that fits Ray J. Yeah. Did she offer any nickname? No, no. She's never had a nickname? Well, I didn't ask. Well, I've got to go to the kitchenette,

so maybe I'll hound her. Just pop into the news booth. Oh, but what would you prefer? And ask, yeah, and then at seven we can try that. All right. Otherwise, Ray J, Jacko. I think Ray J's way better than Jacko.

Yeah. Isn't that what they called Michael Jackson? Michael Jackson, Wacko Jacko. Oh, yeah. Okay, let's not go there. You can call her Wacko Jacko. Thanks, Wacko Jacko. Oh, yeah. Okay, let's not go there. You can call her Wacko Jacko. Thanks, Wacko Jacko. Well, he's not using that name anymore, is he?

No. So it's up for grabs. Happy to pass the mantle. Is it? Okay. The top six is coming up. Yeah. And the warehouse.

Oops. Oops. It seems that they may have just copied and pasted the description for a product they were selling. A push bike with a kickstand easy enough for a girl to get up. Yeah. Wow. With their little weak limbs.

With their weak feet and girly legs. Yeah. Little spinny legs. It made it easier. As easy as pushing a button. Even a girl could do it. They have since removed it and apologised for it. How many people saw that before it went on their website?

I don't know. Too many, I reckon. For, like, how did that not get seen? Because it feels like it was formatted specifically for their website. Like, they might have copy and pasted it from somewhere, but someone had to change the font. Right. Put the bullet points.

Do you think it was an intern? Like a summer intern? No, interns are pretty woke. Yeah, I'd say an intern would be young and would know better. Yeah, I think upper management, lean on interns. Yeah. Wokeness to help with these sorts of things. I reckon this is some 80-year-old man who grew up many, many years ago.

Maybe he described it himself. He's writing and he's like, that was easy to remove. Even a girl could do it. Yes. Yeah. Not like voting or driving, which I still don't think they should be allowed to do. I've got the top six other unisex products available at the warehouse. Products that you may have thought only men could use,

that it turns out even women can use. And they'll be available at the warehouse. Yes. Oh, fantastic. I'm excited for this. That's coming up on the show. Yeah. And I believe I have the hottest headline I've ever read, not even in 2021, just ever.

That's a big call. It's a huge call, but I'm going to stand by it. I'm going to tell you what it is a little later on. Fletchvorna Megan, the podcast, ZM. Is this the wildest headline you've heard in your life? Gwyneth Paltrow's vagina candle explodes in woman's living room. It's certainly up there. So this was last year.

Was it last year or the year before? It was last year. She made quite a splash when Gwyneth Paltrow's Goop company, which is honestly, if you haven't been on the Goop website, you've got to get on there. It is a wild ride. This was pre the loaf handbag or was it the loaf lamp? Both. The baguette handbag and the loaf of bread lamp.

Yeah, which she also, she had a resin loaf of bread lamp, which was $300. Yeah, everything on there is absurdly expensive, whether it's a vag egg. Do you remember that? Oh, yeah. The yoni egg. Or a vagina candle and the candle's called, this smells

like my vagina. Yes. Now, this woman, she was horrified when a candle, this candle, the vagina candle, which she says she won in a quiz, but she went on Goop and she... Yeah, she's embarrassing. $1,000 worth. It suddenly exploded into flames in the middle of her living room.

It just burst into flames. She said it exploded in a minute. That's what candles do, though, isn't it? No, no, no. It wasn't a singular flame. The thing exploded with huge flames and bits flew everywhere. It was too hot to touch. Was it that one where someone had burnt a candle right down?

Yeah, because people don't respect the, you've got to leave a centimetre. Yeah, you've got to respect the rules of the candle. And then you mount the wax into the next candle if you're a big like, but what about all that leftover wax? If you don't want to, yeah, because the glass gets too hot. Well, that's what happened is the glass shattered and the wet wax went everywhere and now her whole living room smells like Gwyneth Paltrow's

yonic. We've all had to deal with our living room smelling a little bit like vagina at some stage. Well, this is the thing. I think she's found a sense of humour about it because she said, my whole house could have burnt down, but it's quite funny now looking back that Gwyneth's vagina candle exploded in my living room.

Wowza. Is she angling for a new candle? Well it's $113 New Zealand dollars. See this is why people don't let all these nice candles Why they don't I'm happy to leave an inch in the water but the bottom. Absolutely not.

They don't want to leave a centimetre because they cost like $100 or $50. And you're like, well, I'll just keep... I paid a lot for this. I've got to burn it. I need every inch of it. I need every centimetre of that candle. Apparently the candle has notes of geranium, cedar, damask rose and citrusy bergamot.

My vagina doesn't smell like that. I'll say it here and now. I've personally never come across one that does either. Good morning, Dad, on your drive home. Is it a hereditary thing? What, not having notes of bergamot in my vagina? I don't know if it's hereditary. Well, your dad will know.

If you could just let us know you're on your way to work. This is so good. Why not? All right, Craig, ring in and let us know you're on your way to work. This is so good. Why not? All right, Craig, ring in and let us know. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. Napier. Friday, there was a service station fire. This is pretty freaky.

When I first heard about this, I was like, maybe Mythbusters were wrong. Maybe you can't use your phone on the forecourt. Oh, no. What is the thinking behind that? Not using your phone on the forecourt. Oh, no. What is the thinking behind that? Not using your phone on the forecourt? That it would ignite the fumes? No, I never really understood it.

Yeah, anyway. But if you dropped it? Maybe. Mythbusters proved that was rubbish. Oh, right. But every now and again, they'll still be like, get off your phone. Well, an APS service station on Friday was the forecourt absolutely destroyed by a fire. And more details yesterday were released about this fire.

And it is incredible. It's wild. Now, this is in Napier, Main North Road, Friday evening. Now, it's a BP and executive intern, Anya, you'll be happy to know, I'm just looking at the photos here, it's only the forecourt. It looks like inside, the Southern-style chicken bites are fine by the looks of this. Thank God.

Because I know you love a Southern-style chicken bite. Boy, did I smash some over summer. Have you tried the new pie? The buffalo chicken pie? No. You know buffalo wings? Don't branch out. Buffalo wings. Oh, it's like that bit in a pie. Not enough chicken, though. It's not a sauce. You know buffalo wings? Don't branch out. Buffalo wings.

Oh, it's like that bit in a pie. Not enough chicken though. It's not a sauce. Oh, is it? And you know how that buffalo sauce is super stainy? Yes. So sacrifice the t-shirt to that. Oh, really?

A white t-shirt? It's been relegated to farm wear. That's not a car pie, is it? No, no, no. No, no. I wouldn't even say it's a car pie. That's almost a knife and fork job. Yeah.

Right. Well, you'll be happy to know it looks like everything in the store was fine. Thank God. Now, security footage has been reviewed by police, and they have released the details. There were three people in a parked car at the petrol pumps, and one of, there was a bucket of petrol. A bucket.

I'll stop you there. Just a clarification on the vessel being an actual open bucket. I believe it was a bucket, yes. Metal or plastic, just out of interest. So this is Detective Inspector Rob Jones reviewed the CCTV footage and indicates a bucket which contained fuel caught flames while inside the vehicle. Why? I have so many questions.

Now, it's a miracle nobody was injured or killed. Apparently, police say the container was ignited by a flame from a cigarette lighter. Well, that's how you start a fire, isn't it? Inside the car. So hang on. So these people, did they pull up maybe and need to get fuel for another car?

You know, when you have to see my old vessel? Yeah, it sounds like it, yeah. And usually you have a sensible red container with a little thing. Well, you're not allowed to put petrol into anything anymore. Like, you can't put it into a milk bottle that's been cleaned out. No, it's got to be a proper container, doesn't it? Yeah. I think I might have done one of those big Just Juice ones back in uni days.

What, because your scooter ran out of petrol all year? Yeah, you know, when you just didn't have one of those fancy things. Yeah, because the petrol station knows, by the way, they know you're going to need that. If you walk to the petrol station to have to walk back to your car to take petrol, they know that they can price gouge you on that red container because you're going to absolutely need it. How did your car run on a little bit of just juice in 91?

I think it was fine, but this car ran on air. The fuel light was never off. Right, okay. Yeah, I was topping it up by the dollar. When I worked at a petrol station, you weren't allowed to, we weren't allowed to give the thumbs up

to fill anything that wasn't certified. A proper container. People tried to fill many a milk bottle. I need to see this footage. I need to give the thumbs up to fill anything that wasn't certified. A proper container. People tried to fill many a milk bottle. I need to see this footage. I need to see the bucket. I need to see this ignite, the moment that they scatter out of the car. This is madness. Because you know what petrol's like when it lights?

It's very scary. Because it goes... Yeah. That was really good. I've been by a bonfire that somebody lit. And you think it's going to be... It'll just go up. It doesn't.

It explodes out. It's crazy. There's so many points here where they've gone wrong, isn't there? The open bucket in the back of the car, and then I might have a durry. Or was it a, what's in the bucket? How much petrol have you got in there? I'll just turn the light on.

Turn the light on inside the car. Oh, I can't see it. Oh, here you go. I've got a flame. Yeah, let me lean back with this lighter. Madness. Because when my friend Callum worked at a petrol station, this is going back some,

and he declined a child to buy cigarettes. Oh, okay. Because the child was young. Yeah. And then someone came in. How young was he? 12 or something. Like, really young.

And he's like, can I have a pack of berries? I'll have a pack of Marlboros or whatever. Sigs, Holiday. It was probably Holiday. Was that the cheap ones? Probably. And then somebody came in five minutes later and said, there's a kid out the back flicking matches.

And they went round the back. And the kid, you know those when the big truck pulls up and they pop up those little lids. Oh, yeah. And the big tanks under there. And the big tanks. This kid had pried the lid open and was trying to flick matches into it. Far out.

So, if you're familiar with Northcote on the North Shore of Auckland. Yes. There's that busy intersection where there's like the pub. Yep. And there's a petrol station on one corner. Yep. There used to be a petrol station on another corner and a petrol station about 100 metres down the road.

Yeah. And when the police came to collect this youth, they were like, holy shit, like if this had gone up, that would have gone up and chances are that down the road would have gone up as well. They would have been like bombs. Like a bomb. It would have been like a bomb.

A huge bomb. What a little shitbag. And the kid just had no idea. He's like, oh, I was just pissed off they wouldn't sell me cigarettes. So I was going to blow it up. I was going to blow up the whole block. Thank God lighting matches is actually quite hard, isn't it? And when you flick them, they go out in the air.

Yeah, lucky. Fletchfawn and Megan, the podcast. ZM. New Zealand Pins is apologised. This is a good video if you've not seen. Somebody posted it to Reddit. It was their courier package arriving. They must have a motion-activated security camera.

Oh, yep, okay. Because it clicks on as the courier driver pulls into the driveway. And you can almost see, once you've watched it once, well, on the rewatch, you can see this was on the courier's mind. The minute they pulled into that driveway, they were like, I could get it on the door from here. They scan it in the car, reach out. By the way, they're throwing across their van.

So they reach out the window with their right arm and flick it out in front of the van that they're sitting in onto the doorstep. And it landed on the doorstep. Well, that's the thing, it goes out of shot. And the person isn't particular about where it landed, it's just that you probably shouldn't be chucking my parcel. Thanks, Courier Post.

So they've apologised. So Courier Post have apologised for him? Has he said anything? Not as yet. I don't think he should apologise. Is it a fragile parcel? Yeah. Have they specified what was in it?

They have not specified what was in it. And a courier did comment saying, I'm an ex-courier. This is pretty typical. Good couriers will know what's inside the package and treat it accordingly. Treat it accordingly? With their, um, like, no, though. You know how you always say to a courier, oh, what is it?

They don't like that. They hate it. But they do know. They do know because they'd jiggle it, wouldn't they? You can tell if it's something like an item of clothing, can't you? Yeah. You can tell that it's not a box of wine glasses.

We should do this with some couriers. Or get a courier to see if a courier's any better than the average Joe, like us, at guessing what's inside a courier bag. W a courier is any better than the average Joe, like us. Right. At guessing what's inside a courier bag. Oh, yeah. Wrapping up some things. Yeah.

And there's like five items and you have a few seconds of shaking and feeling and then you get to write down what you think it is. But that's the thing. If it was soft, you would just chuck it on. If it was soft and light and didn't feel like it was going to break. Like in a bag, you know, those bags, not a box. Yeah. No, it's not in a box. It's small. If it was soft and light and didn't feel like it was going to break. Like in a bag? Those bags, not a box? Yeah. No, it's not in a box. It's small. If I was to hazard

a guess as to what it was, I'll just get exactly how big it was. There's the scan happening. It looks like about the same size as my delivery from the Dollar Shave Club

that I've been trying to unsubscribe from for a few months. Because you've got too many shavers. It's like... Right, okay. Yeah. So it's tiny. It's... I mean, what are they moaning about?

Tiny tissue box size. Yeah, right. And looks soft. And there's no fragile stickers on it. Maybe it's her Easy Buy order that's come in. A lovely folded up blouse. Now, the blouse will survive that because of the packaging it's in, but they'll apologise.

I've looked again at the video. They've blanked out the number plate and you can't see because you know how they always have their name written on the side of their courier van? They shall remain anonymous. Yeah, I'd be more worried if I was this homeowner. They've left a window wide open that someone could just scurry up into. Yeah, right. What, they've got time to install cameras, but not to...

No, don't shut a window. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. From the self-driving ZM think tank, this is the top six. Hello there. Yesterday, the warehouse retracted a listing, edited it, but someone got a screen cap, so I can still tell you exactly what it says. Not only did they spell double and safety wrong.

Oh. And system. Good God. Listen to this sentence. With front and rear double spout wrong, safety spout wrong, handbrake system spout wrong, more speed and accurately. Okay, they read what?

Not accuracy. It definitely sounds like somebody copy and paste and did not read this. But above it, always classical matte black design. But matte spout wrong actually as well because it's matte as in a person's name, not matte as in M-A-T-T-E. Yeah, with an E on the end. Strong steel frame and fork. Safety spout wrong.

Reflectors. Very fast quick release brake, just pressing the button. So easy even for a girl. Do you find you have trouble pressing the brake? Yeah, because my little lady fingers, they just don't have the strength. And sometimes the span between the handle and the brake

is too much for your delicate finger. It is. And all the rings and the fingernails, it just gets in the brake. It's too much for your delicate finger. It is. All the rings and the fingernails. It just gets in the way. Well, this BMX, you could even press the brake. You could do it. This is life-changing for me. I've never been able to do that.

This was on a Malazzo 20-inch bike. Okay. And it was actually a boy's bike, but saying that a girl could ride it. Okay. Why is it a boy's bike? Does it have a... You have to plug your penis in to get to work. It's got a small hole in the seat. It's got a place to put your penis in. Yeah.

Your moustache. What would I do with that, you know? I don't know. Put a snack for later. A muesli bar or a banana could go in the penis holder. Store your tampons. Yes! So many tampons. Hey, how big's a tampon these days? About half a penis?

The size of your average penis? Yeah. What is happening? I don't know. Alright. So now that we've got that covered, the top six other unisex products that the warehouse also offers. I've got these actual products. The number six on the list of the top six other unisex products

available at the warehouse is a backyard sleepout tent for two people at $29. Oh, good. You can tell this is for women because the sleepout is only in the backyard. Okay. You can't have women going into the dangerous places like the wild to pitch a tent. No, no, no. And of course it's a two person sleeper meaning they can

take a man with them in case they get into trouble. Any sort of trouble out there in the backyard. It's a dangerous place. Yeah. There's grass and the cats. Yep. You know. Wild cats. Always take a man with you ladies. Number five on the list of the top six other unisex products that the warehouse offers.

You can pay $7.50 to receive 500 grams of Nutri-Grain. This is the Iron Man cereal. Oh, okay. So there I was thinking only men could eat it. Well, you don't want to get too bulky, do we, ladies? No, gosh, no. I hate that. It turns out this Iron Man food can be

eaten by Iron Woman as well. Goodness me, wow. Yeah. This has opened up my breakfast options. I know. I thought you needed your penis to open the box but it turns out, not at all. Not at all. Anybody can eat that. Number four on the list of the top six unisex products available

at the warehouse. Only 28 cents will get you a 1B5 exercise book. Oh, okay. 28 cents for a 1B5 exercise book. Is that seriously how much they cost? Yeah. I love that people still have prices that you can't actually pay. You can't pay 28 cents.

No. Yeah, you're right. You'd have to buy Swedish rounding. They'd make you pay 30. I think they're saying save $1.42. So what would that be? $8 to $1.70 usually, which you could pay. Yeah, right.

But $0.28, no, you couldn't. But this is the unisex. It is because women can go to school now too. Can we? I done didn't know that. I was also shocked. And not only can they go to school, they're encouraged to write down their learnings.

Oh, fantastic. It shouldn't take long. Mostly recipes, I believe. How will we read them afterwards? Give them to a man. Oh, thank you. And the man can then recite to you back the words, for once you have written in your own book.

Phew. Phew. Thank goodness. Number three on the list of the top six unisex products available on the Warehouse website. For $39, you can get a Panasonic single cordless handset phone. Oh, okay. So I personally don't let my woman communicate with the outside world.

Okay, right. It's a dangerous place. They could get ideas. Yeah. And they might talk to some radical thinkers. But apparently some people are okay with it. So for only $39, your woman, your house woman, can

connect with the outside world. And it's so groundbreaking that the warehouse are letting people do this. Yeah, because you know, before I mentioned that women can now go to school, they will learn numbers at the school

and in their tiny woman brains be able to connect the fact that the numbers on the phone could be associated to somebody else's phone and they would press those numbers in specific sequence to be able to talk

to the outside world. But talk to only women as well. Oh my gosh, if I find any of my women talking to other men. Any of your women? How many? Plural. Multiple. It's a small harem. Number two on the list of the top six unisex products available at the warehouse.

$469 for a Slimline PlayStation 4. Oh, okay. Oh, no, that's a boy's toy. It is a boy's toy, but I was thinking the unisex element could be they would be allowed to watch. Unless, of course, it got too violent. Then, of course, they would have to divert

their delicate female eyes. Absolutely. Because there's a world out there that they need to be protected from. Thank you so much. It is absolutely my pleasure. And number one on the list of the top six unisex products available at the warehouse, $49 for a four-tier oak look living in mason bookcase.

And they can put all their recipe books. It's quite masculine though, isn't it? Quite masculine look. Oh my God, I've just read it doesn't come assembled. So you'll need a man to put that together for you. And then once a man has put that together for you, fill it up with your recipe books and your... Your yoga Pilates books.

Oh, I don't want my woman developing any inner strength, any sort of core strength. That's very... Just do some cardio on the BMX bike with the easy to you... No, no, no, no. Sweating is very unbecoming of a woman. Is it?

Yeah. She might blush. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Keep him weak. Keep him indoors. Basically, that's a good thing.

That's actually a good tagline. I hope people have picked up on the entire sarcastic nature of this segment. Maybe we'll get you to play. Were you being sarcastic? I was just slowly putting forward my political views Right, okay That is today's Subsex It was last year that we learnt that the creepy Santa on Queen Street

Would no longer be adorning the building Which for years it had The Whitcills building Yeah Yeah, for many years Terrifying The Whitcills building? Yeah. Yeah, for many years. Terrifying the kids as he walked by. Yeah.

He had a broken soul inside. You could see it in his eyes. It was dead in his eyes. He lost his wiggly finger and his winky eye. Yeah. Rather than give him a new eye, they just seemed to peel back the winky eye and stick it there. So it was always a bit. He looked tortured.

Yeah. He looked like it had a minor stroke. Yes. He'd seen some things. And he was practicing his movement in his finger. Yeah, his physiotherapist had said, you've got to keep your movement up. Well, then it wasn't going to happen anymore.

It wasn't going to happen. So him and his reindeer set off on a nation-length journey. For a new home. Yeah, in Wanaka. Because apparently it costs a lot of money to store because it's huge. Humongous. Yeah, it's ridiculous. And he'd, I was going to say disintegrated,

but he'd become so bad and ruined and damaged that it was going to be so expensive to try to repair him. So they just thought... There was a lot of repairs. Every year they needed more and more repairs. Now, so the new home was a museum? Yeah. Is that right?

Yeah. In Wanaka. In Wanaka. Well, when it arrived in Wanaka, it was parked up in a quarry. Okay. And it is sadly there where the Whitcalls Santa remains. Oh, no. Yeah.

Still just in three pieces in the Santa remains. Oh, no. Yeah. Still just in three pieces in the quarry. Oh, no. Somebody's put this on TikTok. They've just, what, stumbled across it in the quarry. Yeah. And it looks sad because it's in bits everywhere. It's in bits. It's face and then hat and then it's in like five parts.

His legs are cut off. Heavy rain in that area over the Christmas break as well. He's looking a bit faded. Yeah, well, that's the thing. I don't know. He could do a couple of months outside a year in Auckland over summer, which isn't hugely wet. But then if you get the wet and the fluctuating temperatures

in the South Island. You worry that Santa's going to go soggy. Soggy Santa could be a very real realisation and he could never, maybe he'll never make it into an erect position again. Right. Hopefully not.

Has there been any word from the new owners? No, they went quiet after it arrived. Remember there was a, we saw it, we got sent photos of it making its way down the country on transport. We were like, where is it going to be put?

You forget how huge it is. If you look at the photo of it in this quarry, there's cars parked next to it. It's massive. Well, that building that it's on is like eight stories or seven stories. It's a monster. This kind of feels like when your dad told you that your dog was going off for a holiday in a better place. We have been lied to, haven't we? We've been lied to.

It was never going to a museum. They just wanted rid of it. He's been dumped. Also, is that quarry, are they finished quarrying that quarry? I don't know. Are they going to do that thing where there's an old quarry

and they just fill it with water and it becomes like a, they build like a little bit of a park around it? What if he's just, they're going to drown him out and then one day they'll go diving in there. He'll be like the rainbow warrior. He'll become a diving attraction.

He'll be able to swim through his torso. Like the Titanic. Yeah. But what will you see on the dive around? It's not salt water. Just what an eel and a bit of didymo. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. Yesterday, after I got home from work, I said to Sade,

because the kids are away, they're with mum and dad for the week. Oh, yeah, having a little holiday. And I said to Sade, how about a romantic drive out to bloody Farm Source to pick up some furt? Farm Source? Yeah, Farm Source. Is that like a farming store? Yeah.

That's hot. Hot. Yeah, that's hot. How about a lovely little drive out there? I don't even think you would have finished that sentence and Sade would Yeah. That's hot. Hot. Yeah, that's hot. How about a lovely little driver there? I don't even think you would have finished that sentence and Sade would have been in the car. Absolutely. Well, in the bedroom.

She's like, farm stores can wait. That sort of hot talk's going to get you some action, mister. It didn't, did it? No, it didn't. Not at all. But she came with. Okay. She sat in the car.

I don't know why she came to sit in the car. Yeah, why did she even come? I don't know. Okay. She's like, how long are you going to be? When we got there. I was like, well, you don't know why she came to sit in the car. Yeah, why did she even come? I don't know. Okay. She's like, how long are you going to be? When we got there. I was like, well, you don't go with some, you don't volunteer to come with somebody

to ask them how long they're going to be. Is this place as exciting as Bunnings or Mitre 10? Because you know I get excited about going to those places. Yeah, I get a bit fizzed. Yeah, it's not quite a Mitre 10, but it is like, it's a lot of fun. I walk around, I'm like, oh, I don't need that, but I can have that.

Yeah. Okay. Who knows? Maybe I do need a thing on the water tank to tell me how much water's in there with a little flag that goes up and down. Oh, it would be helpful though, wouldn't it? Wouldn't that be so powerful? I wouldn't have to take the lid off. Anyway, I was in there, picked up some furt.

Great timing too, because it rained last night. Fertilizer, are you for the garden? No, for the paddocks. Oh, okay. Oh, right. So I made the hay. Remember the story about how I made the hay? Now I put the food on, got a bit of rain. Let's get that grass growth happening again. Oh, beautiful. Right.

You know, heading into autumn, got to think about your pastoral management. I look forward to keeping up with this. Yeah, please keep us updated. I will. I'll let you know how it goes. Can you send some photos to the group chat, please? I will, yeah.

Got some fur, got some lime. Put a bit of lime on there, some chicken fur. Now, is that, which is the stuff that dissolves a body? Pardon? The fertiliser. Isn't there one that dissolves a body?

Or like makes a bomb? Isn't that a kind of acid? Is that Breaking Bad? That was an acid, eh? Isn't there a fertiliser that does that? Is it lime? I don't know. Is it lime that you put on stuff

and it will break it down? It would be good to know. Because you could be on some kind of terror list now. Oh, now? Because of the combination of stuff I purchased. We know because of what you've said. Oh, yeah, now. I know you do fertiliser bombs, but that's a different sort of fertiliser.

I didn't get that. Right, okay. Well, that's good. If anyone's asking, that's not the fertiliser I got. Okay, good. But then some lime and some chicken food. And when I was at the checkout that this happened, one of the employees was coming back from somewhere.

She wasn't in the uniform. She just walked behind the counter. So here I am assuming she works there. Okay. She's behind the counter. And she says to somebody working there, I've got a story you're going to love. And so I'm immediately like, woo!

I'm on the radar. I'm a gossip radar. But it wasn't like gossip. She said, I just went and test drove a car. Guess how many times I stalled it before I even got it off the yard. Stall? Oh, so it's a manual. It's a manual. Seven times she stalled it. The first three times she forgot to take the

handbrake off. She didn to take the handbrake off. She didn't take the handbrake off. Oh, that happens sometimes. We all do it. Maybe one stall to do with forgetting about the handbrake. Sometimes you're like, why is my car driving slow all of a sudden? Oh, the handbrake's half on. What's that sound? The car feels heavy.

Isn't it heavy on the road? God, this car's rubbish. Oh, lucky it's a rental. Yeah. And then another person working there looked at me and said, but not hear about this on the radio tomorrow. And I said, well, you've just cursed yourself by saying that. Now you've got to talk about it.

Now I've got to. And then I don't know. I was involved. Right. I was involved. Yeah, in the chat at the retail store. Did they not know how to drive a manual? No, she said she knew how to drive a manual,

but then the guy was like, but you stole it three times with a handbrake on. She's like, yeah, but I always stole it so I just thought it was me stalling it. And then she,

I wanted to know about the four following stalls. Yeah, she should be buying an automatic. I don't know why people buy a manual. Don't buy a manual if you can't get it

off the lot without stalling it. No. You can buy a car that's practically a go-kart these days. Stop, go. Yeah, put your foot down

and away you go. But that wasn't the situation. Right. At hand, there were seven stalls. And then I felt like I was involved in the conversation. Because you put yourself in it because you're a nosy parker. No, I was at the checkout. It was a normal, volumed conversation.

It wasn't like it was happening in the back office and I was, you know, ear to the window listening. Yeah, right. But it got me thinking about the conversations that people have overheard while they're in a shop between the retail workers. Because they'd be having a goss. I'd goss all day if I worked in a store.

Yeah, I worked in retail when I left high school and you just stand and chat all day. And would customers be waiting? Oh, yeah. Excuse me while I finish my conversation, please. Absolutely. And you might almost forget that they can hear everything. You're talking to your friend and you're just doing

scanning their stuff. You're talking about the night before. The guy who works at the cafe down the street. You're just yarning for eight hours. Yeah, gossiping and yarning. And these people just come to the store for a 30 second window of your stories. So you'd like to hear from people that have basically had a big nosy and an eavesdrop.

Well, no, what you've overheard retail workers talking about when you've been in store. Okay. Like some juicy goss. Because maybe you were in a store and one of the workers was having a big meltdown, like going through a breakup. Oh, yeah. That would be juicy. It's a dream to see a meltdown. Wherever you are. Wherever it is. I love seeing a meltdown. Like going through a breakup. Oh yeah. That would be juicy. It's a dream to see a meltdown.

Wherever you are. Wherever it is. I love seeing a meltdown. Yeah, same. I love seeing retail workers that are clearly hungover. Yeah, but doing their best to convince you they're not.

I mean, shit, they do a great job dealing with everyday people. I don't know how they do it. Oh, hells yes. It's the work of angels. It is. It really is.

They're not quite nurses, but, you know, they're... Close. Close, though. Where are they? What, we're going to walk around naked with no food, no things, no clothes? We could put a code ourselves. Just do it online. We're talking about what you overheard when you were in a store,

maybe a conversation between people that work there. Yeah. Because they can often forget that a customer's even there. And you overheard a conversation yesterday about a girl stalling the car seven times. Seven times, yeah. Before even getting it off the lot. And did she buy the car in the end?

You don't know. I wouldn't. I don't think the car and her are a good fit, to be honest. Yeah, and that clutch really stinks now because she's letting it out so slowly and revving so highly. But we want to know, yeah, what you overheard in a store. Rachel, what did you overhear? Hey, guys.

Morning. Recently, I was doing a click and collect order at a department store. And one lady, well, two ladies were helping me out, and one went off to go collect my item. Yep. And when she came back, she was like a little bit slow, like walking a little bit strangely. And the other lady said to her, as if I wasn't even there,

why are you so slow? Did you get laid last night? Oh! In front of everybody. Yeah, I was like, what do I do? Like, this is kind of embarrassing for me and this young girl. So when you get laid, don't you have a spring in your step? Oh, I don't know.

You've really got that. Maybe she had a late night. I don't know. Depends on what you get up to, I suppose. Yeah, it depends on what you're what. Swart. Yeah. You could be hobbling.

True. Really, Rachel, thanks. You called some text messages. I went to a kitchen showroom. No one was there, but I could hear a couple of tradies loudly talking about porn websites out back. I was dinging the bell, just being like, please stop talking, please. Ding, ding, ding.

And they're like recommending their favourites. I don't know. Oh, you've got to check out this clip, mate. I'll send you the link. Yeah, good. No, don't send it to my phone. Oh, watch it on your phone, mate. You know what my missus is like.

She always checking the history. I was in a department store and an older worker was telling off a younger worker for not staying in their section. The younger one talked back and they had a loud argument resulting in threats to telling them to the manager. And there was just all these customers just watching them and they were in a world of their own while they had their... I do love a good fight. Was it because they were encroaching on their commission or something? Because some places are on commission, eh?

Do you walk them up to the till and... Stay in your lane. They have said what department store it is. I'm just not saying. But I don't think they're a commission-based department store. Oh, right. Old gal territorial stuff. Wow.

Yeah. Yeah, right. I was at a sports store and two workers were discussing another worker and how bad they smelt and how bad it was for retail and you should have a sort of certain standard of scent. Yeah. The other worker was standing right behind them holding a box.

I witnessed the whole thing. That hurts. It was absolutely beautiful. Wow. My daughter and I were in a store and we heard one worker telling another worker that she'd met a guy last night and she went to his house and hooked up and then in the morning she saw a photo of him and his partner

and it was one of the other workers and she was asking if she should tell them. Scandal. Oh! Should she? I would have weighed in. Nah. Yeah. But it could have been an ex that might have just not got rid of the photo yet. Yeah, maybe. I would have definitely got involved. You get rid of the

photo, don't you? Well, you put it in a drawer or something. Yeah. Could have a bit of... Burn it with your tears one night. Yeah. Pre-plan something. Yeah. You could have a bit of burn it with your tears one night. Yeah. Pre-planning. Yeah. I was at a store recently and two young girls

were stacking shelves and slagging off, in their opinion, what were shit names. Oh, okay. Mine was one of them. Oh, no. A little bit rough.

I was a retail worker. I was explaining that I have fat man hips while gesturing. Just as somebody walked up behind me, a customer, I was so mortified

I ran off and hid. Fat man hips while gesturing. Just as somebody walked up on me, a customer, I was so mortified I ran off and hid. Fat man hips? How do you gesture that you've got fat man hips? But then if the customer's behind you, they're getting the whole thing. You just hope they don't agree. Love your body. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast.

I have the top 10 most complained about companies from Kiwis in 2020. Now, how did they judge the complaints? Was it the Commerce Commission? Commerce Commission complaints. These are formal complaints. Formal complaints. Not just bitching and whinging online. No, no.

It's not having a Facebook moan. These are formally laid complaints. Sitting at number 10, it's Jetstar. Okay. Does it have a, is it like one of those music charts where it's like up four this week or down two,

down two from last year? No, I'm not sure where they, I mean, that feels quite low down the list for an airline. People love to complain about airlines. Well, especially last year. Yeah. Yeah.

So Jetstar's number 10. Number nine, Two Degrees Mobile. Okay. Again, it's number 10. Number 9, 2 Degrees Mobile. Okay. Again, it's just another, I think, you know, I don't know if it's anything about the company. People just love to complain when their Wi-Fi, you know, their data's not working. Yeah, it's the company's fault that people have run out of data when they

didn't buy enough. Yeah, it's like, what have you been watching? Number 8, Te Warefare, the warehouse. Okay. That's had, oh, that had 103 complaints. What about, because I've always found them like pretty good. They're really good if you go back. Sometimes they don't even need a receipt.

When I was a young actor, fresh out of drama school, I did the warehouse training courses. Why? What do you mean? You mean what? I needed money. So they used to run these training courses for the warehouse and this company, this improvising company, would do it.

So you played the role of the customer? Yes, you're like, hey guys, here we're going to go, we're going to do these exercises. Anyway, what I learned about the warehouse was that they love their staff and they love their customer. So that's surprising to me as well. I've always had a good experience at the Te Warewhare. So what did you act like?

A person bringing something back? Yeah, it was like a three. Like a frustrated customer? No, it was a two-day kind of course, and we did it all across the country with every single warehouse in the country. And you acted out being customers? Yeah, so you and another person, you ran the workshop.

So you, you know, the workshop was created by this company and you as the actors learnt how to do it and ran these things and they did team building exercises and yeah, role playing kind of stuff and breaking down, you know, getting to know the Yeah. And now I'm playing an 80 year old that's taken a tumble in home wears.

Yeah. Well, yeah, a little bit. And I learnt a lot. Wow. Sitting at number seven, and this is a reflection of 2020, it's Flight Centre. Oh, yeah. They would have had a hell of a year. They've closed so many stores too.

And do you ever walk past one now that is open and there's like one person in there and they're just like doing nothing and you're just like, I feel so bad. I'm just like, oh. You want to pop in and sort of pretend like you're interested in going somewhere. Yep. Flight centres, number seven. Number six, Woolworths.

So is that Kansas? That's Countdown. Yeah, that's the Countdown company. The Woolworths company. Yeah. Yeah, so Countdown, number six. Number five, no leaming. Oh.

I guess a technical, you know, what's it called? Technology. That'll be pretty over refunds and stuff. People not getting refunds. Right, yeah. And I suppose you spend a lot of money on tech. Yeah. I got my TV wet. They won't give me money.

He didn't say it wasn't waterproof. Nowhere on the packaging did it say, I couldn't put this TV in my bath. I want my money. Number four, foodstuffs. So another supermarket parent company. People just love to complain when they're hungry, I guess. Number four, Foodstuffs. So another supermarket parent company. People just love to complain when they're hungry, I guess. Number three, Vodafone.

Oh, okay. Classic. Yeah. So did it spark on there? Number two. Oh, I was going to say. Telecommunication companies always get complained about. Always.

I guess because it's just something you use all the time. So when it doesn't work, you're a bit upset. Yep. And sitting on top of the list at number one, Air New Zealand. Yeah. So when it doesn't work, you're a bit upset. Yep. And sitting on top of the list at number one, Air New Zealand. Yeah. Oh, yeah. There was a lot of kerfuffle

with refunding flights, you know, giving people credits or money back and all that kind of stuff. So there were a lot of formal complaints laid about Air New Zealand.

That's the top 10 most complained about companies in 2020. And that would be a change for them because they probably hardly ever get complained about. I was going to say,

they were usually airline of the world. Yeah, and a favourite kind of business of New Zealand kind of list. Yeah, well, people didn't get to go to Italy

and they were sad about it. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast, ZM. Well, in Australia, a woman has gone viral after she appeared on Marley, Mar,

how do I say, Marley. Marley and Me. Marley and Me, like Marley and Me but an Marley Marley. How do I say Marley? Marley and Me. Marley and Me, but an I. Marley is her name. She's a 19 year old female from the Sunshine Coast in Australia. Now she was looking for a car park. Driving along and she found one

but there was a woman in it. Now the woman that was in it was not in a car. No. She was just a woman. She was just standing there and she was waiting for her husband to come because she'd found the park. Oh, she was preserving. Now that's not allowed, is it?

It's not allowed, but I will admit I have done this. Yes, until someone's like. If someone calls you out for the park, you've got to give it to them, right? If you can't see your friend or whoever you're saving it for, literally being like... And you can point to them and be like, sorry, I'm saving it. They're just there because the car was...

We had to go around to get back in. Yeah, I suppose so. But not... They're not in sight. This is how it went down. I'm sorry, you can't do that. Can you please move? You can't save a park. Is that the reason why you're filming me? sorry you can't do that can you please move you can't save a park

is that the reason why you're filming because you can't do that okay i'm gonna call the police yeah so it kind of it escalated very quickly i don't know how it ended um but yeah i think she might have just gone off for a uh a different park oh my gosh. Now we have asked, we've run a poll, is it okay to save a car park if you're not in a car? Mm-hmm. 92% of people say no. Not okay. But that still leaves 8% of people

that are like, yep, that's fine. Um, yeah. I think, I would fall on that 8% with rules surrounding. No, you can't have clauses. I'm not allowed my clauses. No. I think it is a bit of a dick move.

What you want to do is like, I did this over, Megan, who's on maternity leave, labels this as white male arrogance. And I have this in droves. If I see a park that I want that's on the other side of the road, I will literally just turn across lanes and go into it nose first and then just be like waving people around.

Yeah. And then have to do like an 8.2. Yeah. Parallel. And then parallel parking. Meanwhile, cars are backing up. Yep. Yep.

Don't care. Need that park. Yeah. I'll kill for a car park. I did that. Don't care. Need that park. Okay. I'll kill for a car park. I did that. I've got a park right outside Yumcha. Now, do you know how good a park right outside? It's impossible.

Come on down here. The Grand Harbour. Okay. There's that park and a half. Terrible planning, by the way, Auckland City Council. You put trees in where people park. Now, I don't know what the idea of that was, greening up the city or whatever,

but you've made the parks one and a half parks. Yeah, that's silly. So one car's got so much room around it, but you could never fit two cars in. There'll be a couple of baby boomers in a Winnebago that'll appreciate that park, though. I don't think it'd fit a camper. You know those cars that look like they're sort of driven into a wall?

Those little half cars? Smart cars. You could fit two smart cars. You could fit one car in a smart car. Yeah, you could fit two Fiat 500s in there. If I had a smart car, I reckon I'd go like nose. Yeah, I'd always go nose in. I would never parallel.

No, neither. No, nose in every time. I'd have my smart car slightly heightened so that- What, like on a Pimp My Ride show? Yeah. Slightly heightened so I didn't hit the curb I'd go nose in the whole time I'd probably even park

On the footpath It's so short I'd almost go Landscape Rather than portrait You know what I mean I'd just park at it Yeah

And then just stop God it's Smart cars are The future And you can say You're driving a Mercedes Because they make them Yeah right

Okay Yeah You just have to put up With looking like A bit of a fool Yeah And you can say you're driving a Mercedes. Because they make them, eh? Yeah, right, okay. You just have to put up with looking like a bit of a fool. Yeah, if I was in a smart car, I would have literally just driven in and parked in the back half of that park and the woman wasn't standing there. Yeah, and so you can have the other half. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast, ZM.

I had a bit of an awkward experience. I needed to borrow a microphone to record something. So I text a friend, a bit of an awkward experience. I needed to borrow a microphone to record something. So I text a friend a soundy friend and I went over to her house to borrow said mic and as I was there Are you doing a podcast?

No I'm not doing a podcast. Don't worry. I'm not another comedian doing another podcast. Anyway I went over to borrow this and I stumbled into what was clearly a breakup and I didn into what was clearly a breakup. And I didn't realise that that had happened. What was the time difference between saying to your friend, I might pop over and then arriving?

Oh, no, no, no. It wasn't their breakup. No, it was their breakup, but they'd already broken up. But what had happened was I came over and I said, hi. And he was there cleaning out his stuff from their house. Oh no. Packing out his furniture, moving all of his plants. And she was like, this is happening.

I feel like your friend should have said, come around later. It was just like, just swing by, pick it up and go. Right. And I was like, I'll come in for a chat. Okay. It was very, very awkward. Anyway, I messaged,

I made myself scarce as quickly as I could. Text saying, what the hell was that? And yeah, five years together that had very quickly broken up

over a fight about what to have for dinner. And that was it for that five year relationship? That was it. Five years solid, and a fight about nachos was the straw that broke the ground.

Who wanted nachos? It was not about who wanted them. It was the question itself about what are we going to have for dinner. Oh, it's nachos. We had nachos last week. We always have nachos. I love nachos. Why didn't you make another suggestion?

But anyway, this argument, obviously it spiraled into talking about more things other than nachos. Nachos, yeah. Nachos sparked the fire. It was really the straw that broke the camel's back. It's not like something you'd break up with someone over. Well, I mean, you'd like to hope so.

I haven't really gotten that far into the details with her, but I know that nachos started it. I've got to stop shrugging. Because I've just got to the point now where Charlotte's like, what do you want for dinner? I'm like, I don't even reply with a sound. If Aaron says to me one more time, I'll up to you, I don't mind. Oh, flip this house upside down.

Yeah, he'll get the nacho treatment. Yeah, he'll get the nacho treatment. He'll be out of there so fast. When you, say you made dinner, and after he said anything I don't mind, has he ever said I don't want this? God, no. No, he's just grateful to be fed.

Yeah, right. But I think that's kind of the situation that happened with my friend was I had nachos again. So she made nachos. So after asking what do you want for dinner, I don't mind, and then you give them nachos and they go, oh, nachos. I have never met a man, never in my life,

a man who would say no to nachos. Well, all they say to him is good riddance. Yeah. Get out of your life. And it's definitely over. It wasn't like one of those. No, no, no. They lived together and he was packing up his stuff.

Right, okay. And moving it out. Stripping their house of his plants. Wow. It was drama. It was full noise five years five years nachos you say you could say that house is not hole's house anymore oh but you really elbowed that one out push push it anyway i want to know from uh you listeners have you ended a relationship

over a silly argument? Over something trivial? Yeah, the one argument that you were like, okay, this is it. Yeah. It's over. There's a whole lot of other stuff, obviously. Under the surface. Yeah.

But what was the argument that started the end of your relationship? Fletch is in here peddling Doritos sweet chilli as the ultimate chip for a base on nachos. What's wrong with that? I'm the tasty cheese chip. The round one in the red bag. See, those are probably better for scooping. You can get a lot of mince to chip ratio on that. The triangle Doritos snap in half like a weak twig.

It was a fight about nachos that you witnessed that ended a five-year relationship. Yeah. And we want to know this morning, what was the silly little argument that ended a relationship for you? It was just a straw that broke the camel's back. I don't know how silly that argument was now, considering how quickly we just got quite heated on a debate about nachos.

Well, somebody texted in, didn't they? They've just told their boyfriend they're having nachos for dinner tonight. They'll keep us posted on their relationship status come tomorrow. Oh, good luck. Good luck to you.

I just think I've never met a man that would turn down nachos two nights in a row. Three nights in a row. How many nights in a row could you do nachos? Might be stretching

in a four. Yeah, I reckon by Thursday you're like, oof. Yeah. Gagging for a salad. Because I assume we're eating the cold leftover nachos for lunch the next day, the soggy chip ones.

Oh, yeah. So night four you're on meal eight of nachos. Yes. Okay. Yes. So, wow, some incredible messages coming in. Yes, a message is, my boyfriend when I was younger didn't want me shaving my head

to raise money for canteen. So I said, boy, bye. I was a didn't want me shaving my head to raise money for canteen. So I said, boy, bye. I was a bald-headed queen. Turned out it suited me super well. Yeah, right. And my long hair

went to make a wig and I raised $950. Oh, bravo. Yeah. Good work. So see you later, sucker. I'm my ex and I broke up

because I overcooked the broccoli. I mean, to be honest, that is unforgivable though. No one likes a soggy brock. My mum should haveck my mum should have my dad should have left my mum years ago

is she a boiler oh my mum was a boiler back in the day growing up everything was boiled within an inch of its life yeah carrots

cauliflower broccoli everything it would just mash when your fork went in it my broccoli's not done until it's grey oh no

the water's got more vibrant vitamin in it than the broccoli. Kat, what was the silly argument that ended a relationship? I'd just been on a work trip for two weeks and got home on a long weekend and then on the public

holiday, which was amazing, he decided to play computer games for eight hours rather than go out and do something with me. Oh wow, so you were like, see you later. Yeah, well it took about six weeks for us to go out and do something with me. Oh, wow. So you were like, see you later. Yeah, well, it took about six weeks for us to go through and making a decision to do that again because it was amicable. But it was definitely the day that we were like, this isn't working anymore.

We need to figure something out. That was the fork in the road. You looked at him and thought, this is not my life. Brilliant. Kat, thanks. You're cool. Justin, what was the silly argument that ended a relationship? Hey, guys.

Mine was more like, yeah, a bit of a deal breaker in the end. But it wasn't really an argument with me to start off with. It was she was arguing with the checkout lady at a supermarket about the little gardens. And she hadn't had enough time to collect them all, but it was coming to an end. And she was like, I don't know if she was asking for an extension or whatever, but I just sort of subtly said, you know, just let it go. Don't worry about it.

It's fine. We'll get you some veggie garden from Mitre 10 or something. That was the thing. That was the thing. There were seeds. You can get seeds anywhere. Yeah. And then so she just started yelling at me in the

supermarket saying I never had her back or anything and I was just like, you know what, fuck you. Yeah, I'm out. Do you know, Justin, if she's got a new partner and if she's collecting the smeg knives? Yes, she is and she had the cheek to ask me if I was still shopping at

Newark because she asked if I could leave the stickers in the letterbox. She is a fiend. Oh, my God. You know, that's ending. We're going to delve into this soon, but people are going feral over the end of the knives promotion. I'd say, actually, it's good that you broke up with her

because if you had that argument in the supermarket overnight, she may have stabbed you. Yeah. You're in a better place. Exactly. Justin, thanks for your call. I bet all of her New World little gardens

Are like Weedy long plants That she didn't repot Into like Bigger pots in time No no And they're just All dead and stuff now

But she's still got them On the windowsill I got asked to take My shoes off By my boyfriend I'm an adult I don't need to be told To take my shoes off

So I left Yeah You're like Don't tell me what to do. Lockdown 2020, we were doing some gardening and putting up a new fence and we argued he argued over me not doing it properly

so I left him. We were together seven years. To be fair though, lockdown was tough. Lockdown would have been tough for a lot of people. What was she doing with the fence? Any details? Was it wonky? No, she hasn't gone into details. But I'm imagining

she wouldn't have been arguing for a wonky fence. Yeah. He's like, oh no, you're doing it wonky. That's not how fences are supposed to go. I've seen a few fences

in my time. I'm doing a wonky one. Oh, don't. Okay, but what if you were with someone and they wanted one of those alternating slap fences? Oh, I'd break up

with someone over there. So there's like, so say you've got your... your frame up. Yeah. And then you put a slat. Yeah. And then on the other side,

a slat with a gap. Now, what's your problem with that fence? I don't like it. Just put it all on one side. It issues you privacy, but it allows wind through. No. No, no, no, no, no, no.

Yeah, I'm a one-sided fencer. Yeah, same. If you're building the fence... I'm not... If you're building the fence... I'm just building one. It's just made of money, no, no, no. Yeah, I'm a one-sided fencer. Yeah, same. If you're building the fence. I'm not. I'm not. If you're building the fence. I'm just building one. It's just made of money putting double slats up.

No, but you would put the slat on one side. No, it's not double slats. It's alternating slats. So like slat, slat, slat, slat. So you can like put your hand through it. Yeah, so you could put your hand through it and feed the neighbour's dog. Yeah, but the dog can't get through. No., so you could put your hand through it and feed the neighbour's dog. Yeah, but the dog can't get through. Single slat, single slat.

And then if you're building the fence, let them look at the ugly side. Yeah. I don't like those fences. I've got a real issue with those fences. I'd break up with someone over it. But what if both sides of that fence is on your property? Well, you put the pretty side in the more frequent area. On your side.

What if it's, like, around a pool? So you sit on both sides. No, you're not building a slatted fence around a pool. You've got a wooden fence around your pool. But we are both breaking up with you over your fence issues. This is the second thing that we've said is a trivial argument and now we're all arguing about it again. Sweet chilli

nut Doritos is a nacho base and now the slap fence issue. I make fantastic nachos. Carry on. I want proof. It doesn't sound like you let the mince do its share of the heavy lifting. It sounds like you're relying on the chip to provide all the flavor. No, the mince is rich in flavor.

How long do you simmer? A long time. You'd be sloppy. You'd be sloppy. You'd go sloppy. You'd be putting sloppy mince on top of those Doritos. I reckon at the head finish there'd be mince juice in the bottom. There's no mince juice under the chips.

You can only have the corn chips around the edge because they're not slopped with mints. Yeah, you are a sloppy chip. You get to the bottom. I don't want your sloppy nachos. No, we don't want your sloppy juice nachos here. I want a firm mince. Ah, old slop smagie over here with his mince juice. I'll make them and I'll show you.

Yes, please. It worked. Trivially arguments. Trivial arguments that have ended relationships. Couple more texts to finish. My marriage broke up over a lemonade ice block. Did the flavour run out at the bottom? Did they eat the lemonade ice block?

Did they get you a lemonade ice block when you asked for a fruity snow? No, they probably wanted like a flash magnum or something. Yeah, magnum raspberry. He lied to me about starting vaping. I left after that. What was he? Was he an ex-smoker

or he just said he would start vaping? Yeah. We'd just walk into the room and all the smoke was coming out of his nose and you're like, I swallowed a smoke bomb. You know me and my dry ice habit. vaping. Yeah. We're just walking into the room and all the smoke was coming out of his nose and you're like, I just swallowed a smoke bomb. You know me

and my dry ice habit. Sure. Flesh, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. ZM. Fact of the day, day,

day, day, day. I do, do, do, do, do,

do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do,

do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, That song has no structure. That's what's brilliant about it. Do you know children love it? I'm sure they do. I'll explain it. Maybe that's why.

Because it sounds like a child roger. Yeah, they did. The rhythm. What time signature is it? It's not. People can't explain it. What key are you in? Yeah.

Is it a C minor? Today's fact of the day is about an American organisation that was created in 1906. Now, this was back in the day, obviously, post-Civil War, pre-World War I. America had nothing to worry about. 1906. Look at it now.

Netflix. Huh? Was it Netflix? Yes. Great. Yeah. Fantastic. They sent you books.

Yeah. And then you'd send the books back when you were finished. Okay. No, that's a library. Okay. No, this was called the Simplified Spelling Board. Okay. And it was to reform the spelling of the English language which to be honest

it could do with a lot of work. The English language is an absolute hodgepodge isn't it? It is. It's like

I before E except after C and like all these other words as well. Yeah. Like neighbour. Every word has a vowel or maybe sometimes

they don't. Rhythm. But they'll put a Y in there. Yeah we'll check a Y in there. Is Y a vowel? Maybe sometimes. Sometimes. Sometimes that's a vowel.

So it was around for 14 years, and the basic idea of it was that it wanted to change words that just make the English language easier. Okay. Because it, I guess, because it took from so much, didn't it? The English language is taken from various other languages, Germanic languages, Latin, et cetera, and it's kind of a hard one to learn. So there were 30 members of the board. This consisted of a member of the Supreme Court. There was a Columbia University

president. There was a whole bunch of doctors and they set about making words easier. So there was 300 words that they were going to start. This was going to be their first 300. And a lot of them included the E-D on the end of words, like addressed, caressed, missed. They proposed that the E-D was changed to a T. So it would be addressed, missed. I missed you.

Yeah, I missed. Soft, fine, missed. Yeah, M-I-S-S-T, mist. This is also where, because you know, Americans, rather than using S in words, will often use a Z. Yeah, they do, yeah. So that is one of the things that stuck.

Really? One of the other things, so like surprise and brazen. They were S's and we spell them with S's, but American spelling is with a Z. Yeah. Another thing that stuck was changing R-E to E-R. So like meter, to measure something by the meter. Which we do, but they still do, eh?

We don't do. We R-E and they E-R. Yeah, the same with like saber and caliber. Yeah, they spell it E-R, not R-E, which we still do. So there was a whole lot of words and they came up with a whole lot of rules. They dropped double, like if school has two O's in it, it would have just been one O if they'd got their... No, but that changes the sound of the word.

That's skull, isn't it? Skull, yeah. But they said people would have just worked it out. It just sort of made it easier. There was the A-E, or the O-E, like in fetus. You know how if we're spelling fetus, it's F-O-E-T-U-S. Fetus. But if they spell it, they just put F-E-T-U-S.

So there are some things that actually stuck, but a lot of it got rid of. Final double consonants. So they wanted glass to be just G-L-A-S. That's glass. Yeah, that's glass. But then they say it like glass. That's how they say it. They say it with their, and there's a whole bunch of rules.

A lot of them stuck. A lot of them didn't. They wanted to get rid of O-U-G-H as an O sound, so like although would have just been A-L-T-H-O. I-A. Not O. Yeah, and donut. That's why they spell their donut D-O-N-U-T.

They got rid of the O-U-G-H-T that we have. Yeah, right. Yeah. Americans. If you would like to learn more about their crazy ideas, some of which actually make a lot of sense, the simplified spelling board. And today's fact of the day is there was a 14-year span

where the simplified spelling board tried to make the English language easier. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. Okay, so yesterday my car was working fine. Drove it to work, drove it home from work. You may have been listening earlier in the show, I drove it to Hallandsville and back, which might mean nothing to most people,

so I'll tell you in the distance. It's about 25 kilometres there, 25 kilometres back. That's another 50 kilometre round trip. Filled it up with gas yesterday, running beautifully, as Honda's will for many, many years. On and on. Now, this morning I jumped in the car and turned it, and it roared to life. Yeah.

However, it roared like this. I call that a chug. It sounds like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. It did sound like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. It wasn't like the consistent hum of an engine. It was like something was out. Some kind of steampunk device. Sort of spluttering. And I'm driving down the driveway, and the consistent hum of an engine. It was like something was out. Some kind of steampunk device.

Sort of spluttering. And I'm driving down the driveway, and the check engine light comes on. This is the first time we've owned this car for ages. This is the first time that check engine lights ever come on. Because when you said this in the group chat this morning, I'm just like, oh, you saw me roll my eyes, Hayley. I was like, Vaughn does this. He's always late. He's always an excuse.

No, I was late getting in the car because I had to go and check on all the animals because we had a horrendous thunderstorm last night. Right. Massive clap of thunder, huge amount of lightning. I was like, well, if they've freaked out and busted through the fence, I better take care of this.

Yeah. Don't want them getting into the neighbours. Heavens to Murgatroyd. No. Imagine that situation. So I went and checked on them. They were all fine. I jumped in the car

and they drove into the driveway. The engine light comes on. It's not running right at all, but I'm like, eh, what are you going to do? It's still working. It's just not great. And I'm like,

that Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, which you have reminded me of, it sounded like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. God, the adventures that went on in that car after it started spluttering. So I was like, I'll be able to get to work. Did you get to 100 Ks?

Yes, but sluggishly. Okay. And like, you know when you are cruising at 100 Ks and then you start going up a hill but your car's just like, I've got this and you keep going. It would not quite as much.

Did you put the wrong fuel in it? No. No? Okay. No, no, no, no. Is it a diesel or a? It's a premium. It runs on premium.

Okay. I treat her right. Did you put 91 in your 95? No, I always put a premium it a diesel or a? It's a premium. It runs on premium. Okay. I treat her right. So it's not that. Did you put 91 in your 95? No, I always put a premium. Always go with the premium of the unleaded. Right. So then I get to work and it smells funny.

There's definitely a smell and it says check engine. So I popped the bonnet and I looked and I couldn't see anything. Like I said, check the engine. I opened it and I was like, for what? Like you know what to look for. Light. Tell me what else you got. Light.

I need more information. Consider it checked. Whenever I do that, I pop the button. I'm like, okay, water wipers. Yes. Water for the wipers is done. That's all I know how to check. I know it's got oil.

Yep. And I know it's got water in the cooling bit, but they never overheated on the way in. So that's not my issue. Okay. My question is, was it this horrific lightning strike? Has that done something to my car?

Are you... So you are now thinking that maybe your car was struck by lightning. Or just... And that's why it's driving like a bucket of rusty nails. It was... Lightning was struck in the... Around. It was that lightning that it went off, which woke me up. But that fizzles electrics, doesn't it? Yeah. But that lightning that it went off, which woke me up.

But that fizzles are electrics, doesn't it? Yeah, but that, maybe it is. Mechanics. Maybe there is an electrical part. Right. I want to know if lightning can affect how your car runs. Because you saw this story, he saw a story about a barbecue that got struck.

Oh yeah, a guy's barbecue got struck by lightning and it like burned a hole in the deck. And the barbecue's got like all these raw marks and the paint and everything from where it got struck by lightning. And now you reckon that your car is a victim of lightning. Do you remember the Tom Cruise movie, War of the Worlds?

Yes. When the aliens first pop up, they send out this boosh and everybody's cars stop working, including Tom Cruise's. Okay. Because of some electrical thing. Yeah, right.

It's like an electrical surge. Are you now shifting your story? Because you do live quite rurally. Yes. Into some sort of alien attack. I'm not putting it past 5G technology. Oh, okay. The jury's out.

And my car was recently vaccinated. So I'm wondering if it's got cortism. Cartism. It may be cartism. I don't know. I don't. Is there an auto electrician? I'm not asking for you to fix it because I've got a guy.

I'm going to crawl home after work. You're going to splutter. I'm going to chitty-chitty-bang-bang all the way home. I don't think that's safe. Safety is overrated. This sounds like a tow. A tow job. Oh, absolutely not.

I'm not paying a tow. You're going to be a news alert later as to why there's a crawl on the North Western motorway. Yes, a fire on the side of the North Western motorway. Don't you dare. I use the West. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know if people listening would know, Vaughn. It just sounds like you're really stretching here to...

Somebody said it could be dirty spark plugs, but the spark plugs were fine. Surely this would be a slow progression to dirty spark plugs. Like yesterday, she was absolutely running like a dream. Yeah. I actually said to Sade. Every time anything goes wrong with my car, it gets a bit slow and splattery and revvy. It's the oil.

Someone said a coil. And what's that? A mosquito coil. Maybe a mosquito coil. I'm just going to open the bonnet and start looking for a coily thing. Fletchforn and Megan, the podcast. ZM. And four,

I believe four days left of the New World Smeg knife promotion. It's wild. Now you, you've been collecting? No. So here's,

this is the craziest thing. So I didn't even keep up with what it was and everyone kept going, get the stickers and I was like, no. No.

Because don't tell me what to do. I don't want your stickers. Yeah. Anyway, And I was like, no. No, never mind. Because don't tell me what to do. I don't want your stickers. Yeah. Anyway, so I was at New World over the Christmas break and a woman came up to me. She said, are you collecting the stickers? And I said, no.

Leave me alone. Enough of these stickers. And she said, oh, do you want this? And I went, oh, fine. And she gave me the little booklet and she had in it two full sheets. So you had two of those books full 40 stickers. What's that?

She'd collected all of them or something? So basically, she had tried to get, this was in, where was it? Carterton. And she,

she had obviously only, you know, wanted a particular type and they were super low on stock. So they didn't have what she wanted. So she was like, I've got no use

for these stickers. Oh, she wanted like the bread knife, for example, but they had no bread knife. Yeah. So she was like, well, I no use for these stickers. Oh, she wanted like the bread knife, for example, but they had no bread knives left. Yeah. So she was like, well, I don't want these. She gave me two full booklets and I got two free knives.

See, the most popular knives in Carton are those bone handled old bread knives. They stick between the coils of your stove. Because it was, she'd had, they were full booklets. I got the two like big knives. Oh yeah. Oh yeah, right. Okay. You know, like the Japanese knife.

There's a bread knife and the, yep. And the chef's knife. They're great knives. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, right. Okay. Like the Japanese knife. There's a bread knife. Yep. And the chef's knife. They're great knives. We were lucky, Vaughan, weren't we, that before the break we were sent a few. Megan missed out and that was a source of contention. Well, she did a sponsored post for the knives

but didn't get a full set of knives. I was like, that's on you. That's your fault. Foodstuffs have said this is their most successful promotion ever. Now, people are scrambling scrambling though because there are four days left of the promotion. Knife blocks at most stores have sold out.

Knife blocks. The thing that holds the knife. Can I be honest? Where are you going to put the knives? The knife blocks are the ugliest part of the whole situation. I don't think the knife block is a sexy knife block. Because you know what? I got the set and I actually just got one of those metal magnetic knife blocks. They look so good. The knives are at the ready. Because you know what? I got the set and I actually just got one of those, you know, those metal magnetic knife block? You bet it was one of those. They look so good.

The knives are at the ready. Yeah, they're good. So I don't think the knife blocks, I mean, unless you like really want to collect the whole set and you've been gunning for it, the knife block, you would have to pay $50 and then have all the stickers. Otherwise, if you bought it outright, it'd be $179.90.

For a block with holes in it. Apparently, so the bought it outright, it'd be $179.90. For a block with holes in it. Apparently, so the CEO was doing, the North Island CEO was doing an interview on Tully. He said initially they'd ordered 10,000 of the blocks, but then they ordered with high demand 50,000. So we've gone through 60,000 blocks. I believe so, yes. Now, there are still obviously knives left and with four days to go, people are panicking. Trade me.

Smeg knife blocks. How much do you think they're going for online? Oh God. I don't know. This is disappointing. Okay, buy now. $350. Just for the block? Yep, just for the block. Reserved met, $388. The black one, $270. Reserved met, 388. The black one, 270.

Reserved met, 300. Reserved not met, 450. Reserved met. Reserved met? Can't you buy the knife block, like, somewhere else? I found online a quick search when they started this promotion. 300 euros for the whole set and block. Oh, and the block.

Euros. So what's that, like 500? Yeah, 500 or so. So, I mean, you probably could buy them online, but then who knows with shipping and stuff these days. We need to remove the emotion from it, guys. You need to look at that block and say, am I still going to love this block in a few weeks

when all this panic and chaos has died down? You're probably not going to love the block. The knives, I can see it. So get the metal, get another knife block. Yeah, you can just get those wooden ones with various sized holes in them. But even a lot of the supermarkets,

a lot of the new ones, some of the knives have already sold out because people are getting the popular ones first and then leaving the other ones till then. Maybe the bread knives

aren't as popular. I think my one, all the utility and the bigger ones have gone. I go, if I'm getting a free knife, I want a sharp knife. Big sharp knife. Big, sharp knife. Big, sharp, slicey knife.

You know, the bread knives, you're hacking at it anyway. Yeah. But trade me, stickers and knife blocks are going nuts. And same with knives as well, because people are getting the extra knives and putting those on as well. It's nuts. What do you get?

One sticker per $20 you spend, Dan. Yeah. People just be going into New World and spending thousands of dollars worth of groceries. Just to get knives. I've got an empty freezer. Are you saying if they're buying groceries that they don't need, they could donate them to you?

Did you just say you've got an empty freezer or I hope you've got an empty freezer? I thought you said I've got an empty freezer, like you were going to take food donations from people who just want to buy food they don't have room for. No, I'm all right. If you're not going to, I will. If you're buying food you don't need it, I'll take it.

Sure.
